Chapter 30: Samhain Excitement
31 October 1991, Hogwarts
The conversation flowed from there. And hours later, when Harry went to bed, he thought of the bushy-haired girl with fondness and realized that he had fun just talking with her about magic and their classes. What an odd turn of events.
After that fateful day, Harry and Hermione started a tentative friendship. They met practically every day in the library and spent a couple of hours discussing...

Chapter 350: Spark
13thJune 2013, Avengers Tower
(Tony Stark POV)
The entire room stayed silent for a few minutes, processing what Bruce had revealed. The Accords were really making things tense. Because the man had a point. Wakanda was a last resort if mankind was being attacked or the world was in danger, and even then, they’d lose Rhodey and with Clint gone, they didn’t need to lose more people in case something happened. To be perfectly honest, Tony ...

Chapter 29: A Friend in Me
25 October 1991, Hogwarts
In the end, Harry would need to wait until the end of the month to figure out more. However, he put the issue to the back of his mind. His curiosity was now abated, and he had more assignments to finish to compensate for the research time he used up the previous day. Afterwards, well, he did promise that he would spend the day with his friends, after all.
The week following Harry’s discovery of ...

Chapter 28: Magic Crests
15 October 1991, Hogwarts
Before leaving the room, Harry pointed his wand at his book and cast the translation spell. Suddenly, the words of the parchment shuffled around and turned into ‘An Explanation of Family Magics.’ Harry grinned to himself as he went back to his common room before Filch would find him. It had taken him the entire day, but he had found what he was looking for.
Although Harry wanted nothing more tha...

The voice on the other end of the phone stayed silent for a few seconds before answering, “Are you sure about that, sir. The death count will be very high, especially since the causalities will be mostly civilians.”
“They will be sacrificed for the greater good of humanity. Thousands will die, so that billions will live in peace. I don’t want to do this anymore than you do...

Chapter 27: Family Magic
13 October 1991, Hogwarts
As for the Gryffindor first years, with Longbottom being too busy with his Quidditch position, they stopped instigating things, which made Malfoy feel like he had won. It was sad that he didn’t know that it was all probably designed by the teachers to stop Hogwarts from turning into a battleground. Still, things were starting to calm down, and Hogwarts was beginning to turn into a normal school.

13 October 1991, Hogwarts
Harry didn’t particularly care about Quidditch, but it seemed like a lot of special dispenses were given to the boy. No wonder the boy was so spoilt and intitled. What the hell had McGonagall been thinking when she gave him that position?
It had been almost two weeks since all the professors, for some reason, had chosen to partner him up with Hermione Granger, and Harry was starting to l...

It was a chilly October morning at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and the Senior staff had gathered for their monthly meeting.
Minerva McGonagall felt exhausted. This has been her most difficult year so far. Neville Longbottom and Draco Malfoy coming to Hogwarts at the same time caused a resurgence in the Gryffindor and Slytherin rivalry that had been slowly becoming dormant after the...

Alas, all good things come to an end, and the relatively peaceful flying lesson ended when Malfoy purposefully pretended like he had lost control of his broom and slammed into Ron Weasley, who lost control as well and was falling towards the ground.
Harry was sure that the redhead was going to die. The boy was gripping the broom as if it was his lifeline and practically accelerating towards the groun...

This was Harry’s deepest wish, the reason he was sorted to Slytherin. In his previous life, he had died forgotten, alone. In this life, Harry grew up being told that he was no one, that he would never amount to anything. He would prove them wrong. He would prove them all wrong, that he swore.
It was after the second week of school that something new finally happened. Flying lessons were available to f...

A blue arc of magic hit bot students at once and knock the two boys back into the grounds. The spell was slightly modified to act like an arc and not a beam. It was part of the second-year curriculum about basic spell manipulation in defence of the dark arts.
Harry heard the two boys groaning in pain to make sure they were alright. Well, apparently Longbottom was now an enemy. The last Potter simply ...

Harry just rolled his eyes, muttered “I’m too tired for this,” and turned to leave to his common room. He had his fill with childish petty professors and weird scarred boys that glared at his for no reason.
The rest of the week ended unremarkably. Most of the week was with minor professors, who were obviously inexperienced and slightly boring. They definitely didn’t have a mastery over the fie...

From the looks of it, potions looked like a very interesting field of study, and Harry was interested about the specifics.
As he made his way to the dungeons, Harry hoped that the professor didn’t dislike him on principle, since he was one of his Slytherin. Harry took a look at his schedule and realized that the class was also with Gryffindors. Well, that was a recipe for disaster.
